won't turn right
« on: Aug 22, 2014, 07:59:33 PM »
I just installed another IFS box on my 84 pickup and filled the system up. I can turn driver until the bump stops hit, but when I go passenger, I get very little turn in that direction. It feels like I hit the bump stops, but I'm not even close. There is nothing binding, and it feels like the steering box or pump is keeping me from turning. Please advise, I have never had this problem before.

Maybe the pitman is not on center. Pull pitman and turn all the way to one side then count how many turns to get to opposite side.  Now go back half the turns and you should be close to center. Reinstall pitman and check.
